sparky88 Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I wonder how long it will take Labour to realise that the Remain voting commuter belt is their only way to electoral success. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The red wall isn’t going back any time soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Labour are suffering in the NE of England just as they did in Scotland - only this time the beneficiares are the actual government who's austerity policies are causing the hardship in many of these working class areas.It's either fantastic Tory strategy or dismal Labour inactivity that makes people who having their heads boiled in hot tar vote for the party who are boiling their heads in hot tar. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The red wall isn’t going back any time soon. I'm thinking seats that voted Labour for the first time in 1997 then wouldn't go near voting for Corbyn in either 2017 or 2019.

It's hard to avoid regarding Tory voters there with anything other than the dismissive contempt that is part of the problem. For this version of the Tory party, with this shit at the helm, to be actually gaining in popularity is just desperate. Thank Christ we actually have the pursuit of separation as a thing. It must just look desolate for anyone in England who leans at all towards the left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Referendums in general cause political realignments. Labour still seem to be in denial that this has happened. Essentially the Tories copied the SNP's homework by ramping up the nationalism. Voting for the Tories to 'get Brexit done' is like voting for the SNP to 'get independence done'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
